Every time I think about retirement ages I realise how stupid an "official" retirement age is. Adopting a system started by the "Iron Chancellor," Otto von Bismark of Germany in the 1880's. A social security system to appeal to the German working class.

Central America: Panama may be the best; Equator: High risk of becoming an hostage; Costa Rica: I was told that a national could take you house if you are abscent for too long! Brazil may be ok but I rather prefer Chile. Argentina: unsecurity growing; all Africa: I would not take a single chance.
Finally South East Asia is the best place if you can handle the climate. For me the best place is the USA, Georgia or Central Florida, but for a French National the entry fees is about 1Mio$, so I am in France much cheaper but lousy weather.

For me the best place to retire is USA, south, Georgia or central Florida. The problem: I am French, wealthy but not rich enough to pay 1Mio$ entry fees!!!Asia is a very good place, more freindly to retirees but the weather is too hot and humid for old man. Consequently I live in France, but the weather is far from good and contrarily to all new countries, the immigration is low level, not under control and becoming dangerous.
